Several law enforcement agencies are conducting a homicide investigation after human remains are found in Wilson County.

 

On Tuesday, September 24 around 11:30 a.m., the Neodesha Police Department requested KBI assistance after they located skeletal remains in a pasture east of 6554 Ottawa Road in Neodesha. KBI agents and the Crime Scene Response Team responded to the area, and investigators confirmed the remains were human.

 

An autopsy is scheduled. Positive identification may take longer than typical cases due to the condition of the remains.

The investigation continues with help from the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, the Neodesha Police Department and the Wilson County Sheriff’s Office.
